What a Merry Christmas!

The Philadelphia Bozic's are finally home and attempting to get back on a schedule after a wonderful Christmas tour of Pennsylvania.  First, we spent 4 1/2 days out in Pittsburgh with the whole Bozic family.  We had a great time! Lily got to play with Grandma and Grandpa Bozic first thing every morning before the rest of the family got up. Along with Aunties A and Krissy and Uncle Jeff,  Lily spent a lot of time with Aunt Krissy's dog, Simone who she loved...hint hint, Dad! Our time in Pittsburgh went so quickly, we can't wait to see everyone again.  Lily had so much fun with her Grandparents, Aunites and Uncle in Pittsburgh!

We spent a day at home, then headed up to the Allentown area for Christmas #2 with Ba, Pops, Jack, Aunt Kait, Aunt Bri, Unlce Brett and Uncle Tony.  Brett made his infamous Stromboli and we enjoyed telling stories and watching Lily cruise around the house. 

After spending a few hours with Ba, Pops, Jack & Kait, it was time to head down to Grandma Louise's for Christmas #3.  Great Grammy and Poppy came over for dinner and presents too. It was wonderful!

We miss everyone so much already and can't wait to see you all again.

Lily learned how to play the guitar with Grandpa!

Precious!

The most exciting part of Lily's 3rd Christmas was a giant Tupperware box!  She loved being in it!







Sit then stand, sit then stand....



Time for bed!

Thank you to all for a wonderful Christmas!

Friends and Family

Lily LOVES LOVES LOVES bath time.  Her favorite part is getting hosed off.  She laughs when the water sprays on her face. 

Lily had an action packed weekend.  Friday night, we went to visit Isabella and her Mom Gina. The girls had fun playing together and Lily got to play with some big girl toys like a walker!  She LOVED it!  She attempted to push her music table around the room the next day. Saturday Grandma Louise, Uncle Brett, Great Grammy Audrey and Great Poppy came over for dinner. It was lovely to see them and Lily got to show off her standing skills and got lots and lots of kisses.  Finally, on Sunday we went to a holiday party at our friends Brad & Alane's house.  Thank goodness we have a short week coming up! 

Today is Ba's birthday, we'd like to wish her a very happy birthday!

Now onto the pictures from the weekend...

Gnawing on anything and everything!

9 Months Big!

Lily is 9 months old! She celebrated her 9 months on earth with some quality early morning time with Mom and Dad then was so excited  all day for her 3/4 of a year birthday that she only napped for 40 minutes all day long!! After her napless day at school, her evening continued with a lovely cheese omelet for dinner and stayed up wayyy past her bedtime crawling, talking and standing, until 9pm!  Let's hope she sleeps till 9 am tomorrow morning. Happy 9 months, Lily! 

If there's a cord, Lily will find it!

PJ's from Mom's friend Lauren. They're ADORABLE!!

Some one's ready for Christmas!

Morning playtime in the kitchen.

Eye on the prize....

A ribbon! 

She loves her rocking horse.  She says, "yeeee yeeee" when she gets on!

Teeth!

Finally!!  Lily's two bottom teeth broke through this week.  She's been handling it pretty well and is chewing on anything she can get her hands on.  She now pulls herself up, from sitting to standing without a problem and loves to walk while holding on to your hands. Our little baby is growing up!!

Lots of pictures of Lily and Dad this week....

Lily LOVES our laptops! She bats the keys and pulls the monitor open and shut.



She loves to crawl and stand on Dad too. 

 

Getting ready for bed

We love this outfit from Aunt Krissy!!

Santa's Coming!

This week we brought down our boxes and boxes of Christmas decorations and decorated the house.  Lily got to help unpack the tree, hang some ornaments and help Dad set up his train. And on Friday we went to visit Santa! She was extremely intrigued by Santa's big white beard and glasses! We couldn't get her to smile, but she still looked cute as a button!  Friday was also Grandpa John's birthday! Happy, happy Birthday!



Big box, little Lily



Dad "train master" Bozic

Trying to catch the train!

Caught it!  Next she tried to eat it...guess how that turned out.

A little scared by the train horn

Learning about the train cars!

 

Now we just need some presents under the tree!



Santa!  "Stop pinning my hands down and let me touch your beard!"

  

Lily the explorer...

She spotted a cat and was off! Look at those determined eyes!!

She found a leaf on our way back from the mailbox.  We found out how leaves taste....
